XelNya wolf. Too comfy, anime gifs, I'm sensing more confidence than nihilism. Clearly this can only mean one thing. Also, he talked about me. Paranoia peak.

anime is the biggest red flag

sure! how are you this morning?

Tired, didn't sleep super well, car is still in shop and it's aggravating

What do you think of Haku's plan?

You'd know about that I imagine

awh :c

not sure!

there could be some merit to waiting until the second or third day to instalynch, but like you said earlier, it's hard to gauge player intentions without the vote. I'm also kinda paranoid about millium getting voted out immediately, but the probability of that happening is slim enough that I'd personally be okay with voting, at least for now

there are also 11 people, which is considerably more than in previous games where we were willing to vote on the first day. that might give us an extra attempt or two? iunno, someone can fact check me there

Re: TWG 208: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel (side-episode) [GAME THREAD]

Did you....ask for a fact checker to see if 11 is a higher number then 9?

[Arp!]

Re: TWG 208: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel (side-episode) [GAME THREAD]

Arp! Awfully town. It doesn't matter if not town, he tried. I like that. Thanks for trying!

tried what? is that a good thing?

(also, they/them please! thanks <3)

nonono, I just wasn't sure if more players = more attempts necessarily, since there are more wolves as well (not to mention the special roles that occasionally result in someone getting booted)

Re: TWG 208: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel (side-episode) [GAME THREAD]

also, the previous two games had 9 players? I thought it was 7. oops

Re: TWG 208: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel (side-episode) [GAME THREAD]

I'm sure SunFan is viewing this with all the math in his head right now dying inside but I'll give the layman's answer and say yeah, we have more phases

Keep in mind there is very little chance we can all agree/get the initial engagement needed to insta d1, or even d2 for that matter. Even with a vigi kill, I don't think this is going to be a quick game

Waa it 7
I'm probably wrong on that

oh yeah, good point

in that case, I agree that it would make sense to at least try in the first few phases, because the votes can still give us information

nope, both games were 9, I was totally wrong lol

This is pretty much where I am at, yeah

So, got a vote to cast? EoD is tonight

[Arp!]

Re: TWG 208: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel (side-episode) [GAME THREAD]

I'm gonna hold off for now
tempted to vote for one of the inactives, but they still have plenty of time to say something

Re: TWG 208: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel (side-episode) [GAME THREAD]

From a base pov, I can see where Haku is coming from just based on numbers alone.
3 wolves to 8 town is disadvantage in many ways, and also having our one-night vigi to begin with can basically make this game go from 3 to 8, to 3 to 5 and a MYLO situation *really* quickly; and that's not even counting our paranoid sword-wielder.

I do want to still vote, though, because voting is our power. If vigi doesn't shoot today, I think that's safer for town to ensure we don't lose on the next day, and shoots N2 while there's a better chance of hitting (if that makes sense).

Re: TWG 208: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel (side-episode) [GAME THREAD]

It does. Any vigi in almost any game should not use their shot the first night if they're only one shot.

.....now's a good time to drop the bomb that we may not want to vote inactive this setup? Lemme doublecheck the rules
